UPDATE: Second suspect arrested in Visalia home invasion case

The getaway driver of a violent Visalia home invasion robbery has been arrested. He joins the accused shooter in jail.

Over the weekend, with the help of Fresno police, Visalia officers located 19-year-old Adrian Barrera.

Barrera is suspected of driving the car used in a Visalia home invasion that ended with a resident being shot.

Barrera was arrested at his home in the 3100 block of East Hedges in Fresno. He was booked into Tulare County Pretrial Facility on suspicion of attempted homicide. Charges could be filed by Tuesday afternoon.

The Fresno man is the second suspect arrested in connection with the April 16 robbery that left a man fighting for his life.

Last week, residents in the 1400 block of West McHughes Avenue called police when gunfire rang out. Police arrived and found a 62-year-old man suffering from gunshot wounds.

Sgt. Damon Maurice said the victim, along with two other people, lived at the home on McHughes.

The man was rushed to Kaweah Delta Medical Center and later transferred to Fresno's Community Regional Medical Center for trauma care. Police haven't released the victim's name.

The homeowner was shot "multiple" times but is expected to recover, Sgt. Kevin Kroeze said.

Detectives believe several people broke into the home around 9:30 p.m. April 16 and stole items. The suspected thieves managed to escape once without being noticed.

They returned.

A witness to the burglary said four men broke into the home. The men left with items from the home but later returned in a Honda sedan.
